Maintaining materialized views that have join conditions between arbitrary pairs of data sources possibly with cycles is critical for many applications. In this work, we model vie...
Abstract. We address the issue of efficiently automating assume-guarantee reasoning for simulation conformance between finite state systems and specifications. We focus on a non...

Abstraction is the key for effectively dealing with the state explosion in model-checking. Unfortunately, finding abstractions which are small and yet enable us to get conclusive ...
We identify and address a fundamental general problem which we regard as crucial for the widespread, effective use of decision support systems (DSS) in the future: how can we subs...
History based models, introduced by Parikh and Ramanujam, provide a natural mathematical model of social interactive situations. These models offer a ”low level” description ...
